This post relates not to a comic, but to a DC Classic animated movie, "Under the Red Hood". Now with Comic book related movies, comes a lot of incorrect hooha. However, this movie does not. There are a few minor details that are focused on more, and a few comic related moments that are ignored, but overall it gets the point across.
The story opens in a warehouse were The joker is beating Jason Todd ( second Robin now deceased) to death with a crowbar. Joker leaves, and a bomb goes off killing Jason right as Batman arrives. Cuts to modern day, Batman meets the new Red Hood in a rooftop chase sequence, and loses him, but through voice clarity, finds that The Hood calls him Bruce. So after a sequence of Black Mask and the Red Hood having a turf war, The Black Mask sends in the Fearsome Hand of Four to fight the Red Hood, and is then met by Batman, and the two square off against the Four, and after a victory, Red Hood vanishes leaving a single drop of Blood on one of the Four's swords.
So then metaphorical feces fan slinging happens. DNA matches the blood to that of Jason Todd, which leads to the sympathetic vendetta to save Jason from this new life of crime. At this point, Black Mask has gone into cahoots with the Joker, who has put, not only Black Mask but, all of the Black Mask's goons into a truck bed, filled with gasoline, and drops a lighter. His plan to... well... his lack of plan was then thwarted by the Batman who douses the flame with a Batplane projected fire extinguisher. Batman then grapple hooks the Joker from the truck and begins to carry him away, until the Red Hood cuts the Joker free and escapes with him.
The two Meet up in Crime Alley and Chase through the streets until they crash through the wall of an abandoned apartments bathroom, where batman brakes the wall of a bathtub, the wall of the toilet, and the wall... with Jason Todd's head. Jason then holds a gun to Batman and reveals that he has captured the Joker, and demands Batman shoot the latter. Batman refuses and leaves.
The majority aforementioned is absolutely accurate. Thus Under the Red Hood is a good watch for all you diehard Batfans.
